Many of the most crucial pieces of the 1997 World Series champion Florida Marlins are reuniting at LoanDepot Park next weekend (May 13-15). Not just Craig Counsell—who manages the visiting Brewers—but more than a dozen of the players and coaches responsible for capturing the franchise’s first title 25 years ago.
Fish Stripes has learned that Kurt Abbott, Antonio Alfonseca, John Cangelosi, Jim Eisenreich, Alex Fernandez, Cliff Floyd, Charles Johnson and third base coach Rich Donnelly are all participating in the celebration. Craig Mish of SportsGrid and Billy Gil of the Dan Le Batard Show previously reported that Liván Hernández, Edgar Rentería, Gary Sheffield and manager Jim Leyland will all be there.
